Review summary

This was my second time on The Ecstasy. We brought my parents, sister and niece and 4 of our children with us this time. Disembarked the ship totally confident that this was the last and final time sailing with Carnival.

Embarkation

Very easy to get on the ship. What to do thereafter needs to be worked on.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
The food was mediocre. The buffet needs a lot of work in the diversity of the food served. I. Ever want to see any type of mousse again. Every day there was mousse on the buffet, just a different flavor. The Wind Star Dining Room staff is very disorganized. We waited over 3 hours one bight for dinner. No bueno.

It is what it is. A tourist depot. Nothing but tourists standing in long, hot lines for boring food.
